    Model 3 HW3 retrofit questions, wait time, issues

    Just had my upgrade to HW3.0 today. Everything went smooth. All my settings saves except Bluetooth/WiFi. Also had to sign back into Netflix/Hulu etc. Yesterday I had upgraded to the software to 2020.8.1. However, after the HW3 upgrade today, I noticed that I am back on 2020.4.1 Will Tesla...

    nick in driver's side chrome trim, quote to replace

    nick in driver's side chrome trim, quote to replace

    I actually don't mind the chrome look since it matches my wheels. It just seems really expensive to replace. Would something like this work? https://www.amazon.com/Molotow-ONE4ALL-Acrylic-Marker-703-103/dp/B01E7EGARQ

    nick in driver's side chrome trim, quote to replace

    Hello, I have had this nick/scratch on the driver's side door chrome trim. When I had mobile service here today to fix my charge port door, I asked how much to fix and was quoted $224 + tax to replace the chrome trim. I would need to schedule another appointment since he would need to get the...

    Taking car in for first detail... any preparations?

    I appreciate the perspectives regarding PPF and ceramic coating. It is something I will consider doing in the future.

    Taking car in for first detail... any preparations?

    I was paraphrasing his comments on ceramic coating/ppf as I don’t recall the entire conversation. But regarding the “doesn’t last” Had something to do with weather conditions and cars not being garage kept.. I understand it is different for everyone and I may still consider getting it done in...

    Taking car in for first detail... any preparations?

    Thanks Joe! He used Carnauba Wax (after washing and clay barring etc). For the windows and glass surfaces he used “Invisible Glass” which he highly recommends. As far as keeping the car clean on a daily basis, he said to just hose it down and recommended “meguiars wash and wax” after. However...

    Taking car in for first detail... any preparations?

    Thank you @joebruin77 for the great tips! I just plugged her in because of your tip regarding the battery! I don’t have any PPF or Ceramic but have thought about getting it done at a later time. I have heard the Tesla paint is soft , and will bring this up at my appointment. Also like the...

    Taking car in for first detail... any preparations?

    Hey Burrito, the detailer I goto is in Atlantic County. If you are from the area or interested, I can message you his information. I appreciate the suggestions! I wasn’t surprised to hear that my detailer hasn’t worked on them as I don’t see too many in our area. I’ll update the thread with my...

    Taking car in for first detail... any preparations?

    I'm taking my Model 3 in for its first detailing tomorrow morning and wonder what preparations (if any) that this group has done. I've used this detailer before and he is a nice guy, owns the business and works on the cars himself. He has never worked on a Tesla before though. I imagine I...

    Is this a good deal for used M3 LR RWD?

    The car came out great! Some minor scratches on trim, and a few minor cosmetic stuff. A good detail will take care of most. Much better then how it looked in the photos. The contact on the charge port door needs to be replaced (where you push it to open). I have a service appointment scheduled...

    Used Tesla Model 3s pricing error?

    Good luck @shiftkenny ! FYI - I was one of those who bought a used M3 during the 8/17 price cuts and took delivery on 8/24. We couldn’t be happier! The car looks great, very minor cosmetic stuff which a good detail should take care of.

    Car detailing at Tesla Service Center?

    Looks great! We picked up our M3 at the Paramus Service Center but scheduled the detail for the Cherry Hill location as that is closer to us. Was your car NEW or Used when you bought it? Ours was Used, a 2018, and they washed/vacuumed but not a detail.

    Car detailing at Tesla Service Center?

    Has anyone had their car detailed at a Tesla Service Center? When we picked up our used M3 recently, our Delivery Experience agent said he would put in a request for a Complementary detail. Soonest appointment is 2 weeks out and I have scheduled it. However, just wanted to see if anyone...

    Used Tesla Model 3s pricing error?

    FYI - for reference, I had placed my order 1 week ago at 1:37am ET. But the cars were listed before then, I think around 1am ET. Don't know if it will happen again , but good luck to all hitting that refresh button!

    Is this a good deal for used M3 LR RWD?

    Since I am getting a little paranoid a couple days before my scheduled delivery, I decided to also pull a AutoCheck report as well (in addition to the CarFax). The last entry in the Detail Vehicle History says REPORTED AT AUTO AUCTION. What could the possible reasons be for this and should...

    Is this a good deal for used M3 LR RWD?

    Thanks for the information, I will look into this! I do have a location closer to me, but my SA had told me there would be a 2000 charge to deliver within the state to the closer location... so after reading your comment, I just called my Delivery Specialist and he said it would be no issue...

    Is this a good deal for used M3 LR RWD?

    Congrats PNWLeccy! No transport fees either but a 2 hour drive for me. I have been reading that v2 seats were put in around that time. Was told this car was a demo/showroom which seems common for this color? Car fax shows a single owner, no accidents reported. Titled in 5/18

    Is this a good deal for used M3 LR RWD?

    Also good to know about the bumper replacement! Did you notice any issues with the bumper per the pictures? I also was reading that you can get v2 seats installed in the rear for about 600 With the discount, it seems reasonable to pay for some of these fixes.

    Is this a good deal for used M3 LR RWD?

    Thank you for feedback! Just to clarify , any paint corrections should be fixed first then a ceramic applied over? I also hear a lot about PPF? Would you recommend that get done as well? The seats show some staining per the pics; any recommendations to get those taken care of? And I can’t...
